Carrot Cake Protein Bites¶

| 20 | 10 minutes |
Ingredients¶
1 cup rolled oats
2 cups soft pitted dates
0.75 cup finely grated carrot
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 tsp cinnamon
0.25 tsp nutmeg
0.25 tsp salt
Cookware¶
- 1 food processor or high-speed blender
Instructions¶
Step 1¶
Pulse the rolled oats in a food processor or high-speed blender to create a coarse, grainy flour.
Step 2¶
Add soft pitted dates, finely grated carrot, unsweetened shredded coconut, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the processor and mix to form a thick, sticky dough. If the mixture does not stick together, add 1 Tbsp of warm water and process until desired consistency is reached.
Step 3¶
Scoop out a portion of dough and roll between your palms to form a bit-size ball. Repeat with the remaining dough to create approximately 20 bites.
Step 4¶
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate.
Tip
For more flavor, toast the oats first! See Toasted Rolled Oats for instructions.
